AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL GROUP, INC. 8-K Report, Acquisition Completed (Jun 13, 2024)

Filed June 13, 2024For Securities:AIG

Summary

AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL GROUP, INC. (AIG) has filed an 8-K report detailing the completion of a significant strategic shift involving its Life and Retirement business, Corebridge Financial, Inc. (Corebridge). Effective June 9, 2024, AIG relinquished its controlling interest in Corebridge by waiving its right to appoint a majority of the board and due to the resignation of one of its designees. This event signifies the deconsolidation of Corebridge from AIG's financial statements, with its historical results now being presented as discontinued operations under US GAAP. AIG will now account for its remaining 48.4% stake in Corebridge as an equity method investment, valued at fair value using Corebridge's stock price. This change will impact how AIG reports investment income, which will now include dividends from Corebridge and changes in its stock price. While the report includes pro forma financial information reflecting this separation, it also notes a pending sale of approximately 20% of Corebridge to Nippon Life Insurance Company for $3.8 billion, expected to close in Q1 2025, which is not yet reflected in the presented pro forma statements.
